Remove comment and edit history in Word 2016 document?

How do I remove the comment and edit history in a word document.

I have tried going to

File> Check for issues > Inspect Document

But this seems to be the nuclear approach and it nukes all actual edits to the document when "comments, revisions and versions" is ticked.

I want to keep actual edits but how do I remove editing history.

>> Review tab ―> Changes options ―> click on Accept option ―> select Accept All Changes In Document

This solved it. Changes have to be accepted first before editing marks and comments are wiped before "inspecting the document".

Thanks Paul and Graham. Really appreciate your input.
good stuff - glad everything is cleared up

& thanks for the points
